I have not tested this, but you should be able to write the regular
expression to be case-insensitive without changing the RT core code,
using the "(?i)" construct:

Set($RTAddressRegexp , '^(?i)(server|support|presale|rva)\@domain\.com$');

See the perlre man page for more information.

I agree that it would make more sense for case-insensitive matching to
be the default.
